D  F#m  E  F#m  A  D  F#m  E


[Verse 1]
A                  E 
I thought I saw an angel
         F#m            D 
Calling me across the yard
           A             E 
She said  baby, it's been real
         D
Now I'm gone
A                       E
I should've known much better
          F#m                    D
You can't tame something that wild
       A                     E
When I asked her if she loved me
            D
She just smiled


[Chorus]
           A 
But it's my fault
         E
I don't care
          F#m                    D
I can't hate you if you're not here
         A          E           D
Once you go, never ever turn around
      A                  E
I have sacrificed and I burned
             F#m               D
Oh, you gotta live before you learn
        D                 E                      D
And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts


[Verse 2]
        A              E 
And my angel with her dirty wings
    F#m              D
She used to make me smile
      A              E             D
She kept all of her secrets locked inside
A                  E 
In a place I could not reach her
          F#m               D
Though I tried with all my might
          A                  E                     D
When I begged for something real she said goodbye


[Chorus]
            A
And it's my fault
         E
I don't care
          F#m                    D
I can't hate you if you're not here
         A          E           D
Once you go, never ever turn around
      A                  E
I have sacrificed and I burned
             F#m               D
Oh, you gotta live before you learn
        D                 E                      D
And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts


[Bridge]
    D    F#m        E        A 
And I am sure it'll be just fine
        D          F#m           E
If I remember, she wasn't ever mine
    D     F#m       E        A
And I am sure it'll be just fine
       D           F#m         E
If I remember, she wasn't ever mine


[Verse 3]
         A               E 
And the truth about the two of us
   F#m                D
Is we don't make no sense
     A                  E                     D 
When we made love, our love was just pretend
A                  E 
And now I'm trying to forget her
   F#m                 D
But I feel her in my bones
      A                E                  D
And I wonder if she thinks of me at all


[Chorus]
           A 
But it's my fault
         E
I don't care
          F#m                    D
I can't hate you if you're not here
         A          E           D
Once you go, never ever turn around
      A                  E
I have sacrificed and I burned
             F#m               D
Oh, you gotta live before you learn
        D                 E                      D
And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts

        A                 E                      A
And I wanted the truth but sometimes the truth hurts
